Rick Scott called both the sheriff and the Florida Fish and Wildlife director during the search, and officials said they had been in touch with Disney executives. "We are terribly heartbroken at this outcome," Wiley said.įlorida Gov. A search boat passes Disney's Fairy Tale Weddings Chapel, located near the Grand Floridian resort, as police hunted for a 2-year-old boy who was dragged by an alligator into the Seven Seas Lagoon at the Walt Disney World resort in Orlando, Florida, U.S., June 15, 2016. Wiley said there was a "good chance" the gator was one of the five trappers had already caught, but said the investigation is ongoing and his agency wouldn't rest until it captured the alligator involved. Officials did not yet know if they had located the alligator who grabbed Lane. "They have to be euthanized to be analyzed," he said, adding that his agency has a "very good, close working relationship" with Disney to remove nuisance alligators. He told reporters it wasn't possible to examine the alligators without killing them first. Nick Wiley, executive director of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, had said earlier Wednesday that five alligators had been trapped and euthanized for analysis. The alligator was described as between four and seven feet long. The Graves family has requested privacy, the sheriff's office said in a post to Twitter. The body was found about 10 to 15 yards off shore in about 6 feet of water, Demings said. The boy was playing in about 6 inches to a foot of water when he was attacked. "I just happen to have a 2-year-old grandson, so for me, this is a very human experience that we are talking about, where we are dealing with this family now who there's no question will lose a 2-year-old child," he said at the earlier press conference. Initially a search-and-rescue operation, Demings said at a noon press conference there was “no question” the boy was dead after so many hours underwater and that the hunt had turned into a recovery effort.īut he had vowed to continue searching until the boy’s body was found. The tragic discovery brought to a close a search that involved more than 50 law enforcement officials, including Marine units who relied on sonar equipment to scour the lake. The alligator is believed to have drowned the child, he said. I had three appliances in the last couple of years in my house on grid power smoke or burn at the outlet: a toaster oven at the cord to appliance connection, an iron at the same place, and a washer at the outlet.While an autopsy has not yet been done and a formal identification has not been made, there is no reason to believe the body is not that of Lane. I really don't think enough people run the calculations, and there's something like 100,000 electrical fires a year in America. As said, it should be "about" 2 gauge, but when you read the reviews you'll see things like, "Didn't come with wire so used 6 gauge wire and the inverter would kick off before hitting 1200 watts," or "I used the provided 4 gauge wire and I smelt the wires burning." If you look at Amazon reviews, a lot of people write bad reviews when they have dangerously installed the inverter. So, if you have a 1200 watt inverter, 1200/12*1.2=120 amps, and go to a wire size calculator and get wire for 3% loss or less. Also need to take into account both ways. Really need to see how long it is from your inverter to the battery, and not as the bird flies, but as the cable goes. Not doing these calculations can cause things like voltages drops and the inverter kicking off, wires heating up excessively, smelling of melting/burning insulation or fires. This got me 2/0 wire from the battery to the inverter on a 5' run for a 2000 watt inverter. I'm not saying to buy a $100 crimper, but inverter wire is depended on amps to the (inverter watts/DV Voltage)*1.2 and then length, and ran through a DC calculator. I know home depot goes larger than 2/0, maybe 4/0, maybe larger. You can get all sorts of wire at the hardware store. I got a hydraulic crimper for 2/0 wire for $100, because I don't like the idea of a connection sealed with a hammer. If the 12 AWG is not on the AC side, it would be DC going from the battery to the inverter, which I think a 12 AWG DC run would need to be very short. I'm going to say check the manual on this to be sure. An assumption of mine is that the 12 AWG wire would go on the AC side. As I'm reading this, 16 AWG is skinnier than 12 AWG, so 12 AWG should be better.
